Everyone loves a breakout fantasy sleeper. With every passing week in the NFL, injuries inevitably mount and fantasy owners are often left befuddled at the notion of having to replace one of their starting studs. Often times, these aforementioned underrated talents take time to blossom from a fantasy perspective and simply require the right situation to truly flourish. While fans of the Buffalo Bills may not be fond of watching a team that is depleted of receiving playmakers, it does provide a glorious opportunity for a young rookie wideout to show what he’s made of. Although Zay Jones has not had a breakout game as of yet, a matchup against a poor Tampa Bay Buccaneers secondary could be the perfect catalyst for Jones to explode onto the scene.

Team: Buffalo Bills
Position: Wide Receiver
Percent Owned On Fantasy Teams: (Yahoo Fantasy): 10%
Fantasy Points Total Thru Week 6 (Half PPR): Projected: 38.16  Actual: 9.10

Clearly, based on Jones’ projected fantasy point total up to this point, fantasy experts have been salivating with anticipation at the thought of what the rookie pass catcher is capable of accomplishing. While Jones has yet to live up to these lofty expectations, his steadily increasing snap share (91.5%, 23rd amongst receivers) and end zone target share (33.3%, 22nd amongst receivers). Although Jones’ increased presence during offensive plays has yet to result in him catching a touchdown pass in the end zone, his impressive drop rate (22%, fourth amongst receivers) points to the rookie being reliable yet underutilized up to this point.

Looking at Jones’ physical attributes it becomes easy to see why the rookie receiver was so highly touted coming out of college and why a breakout performance is not a matter of if but rather when. At 6’2″ and  201 lbs, Jones has both the length and frame to make big catches while being able to sustain big hits from tenacious defensive backs. However, the main metric that truly highlights Jones’ potential as a receiver is his overall catch radius. A metric that incorporates a players ability to cover ground laterally as well as to go airborne to reach and secure a football in a three-dimensional space, Jones rates at an elite 10.28 (Any rating above 10.20 is considered extraordinary for a wide receiver). While the aforementioned measurables can only be considered truly great if they result in equitable production, it certainly points to Jones having all of the physical tools to be one of the best pass catchers in the NFL given the playing time to prove himself.

In the end, while Jones has severely underperformed from a fantasy perspective, his physical attributes and off the charts athleticism should set him up for a monster day statistically in the very near future. While Jones has to be considered a fairly high-risk acquisition until he actually produces, it seems inevitable that the second round selection will become a high-reward asset as the season progresses.

Richard Spencer is a highly-controversial, alt-right white nationalist who caused quite a stir from Charlottesville, Virginia, to Gainesville, Florida, and everywhere in between. Spencer denies being a white supramcist, however, he does believe in creating the United States into a “white ethnostate” and supports “peaceful ethnic cleansing” to supposedly stop the decay of European culture. He claims to be the creator of the term “alt-right” or “alternative right,” which has transformed into a social movement who reject mainstream conservatism and political correctness, typically supporting white nationalist views that trolls and threatens the opposition.

Spencer is also incredibly rich. He is ranked as the top paid activist of 2017.

Richard Spencer Net Worth as of 2017: $185 Million

I sh*t you not. Spencer has raked in the big bucks while being an alt-right figurehead. Between September 2016 and September 2017, he was able to bring in an incredible $58 million. Spencer has lucrative deals with CoverGirl cosmetics, as well as various endorsements, stock investments, and substantial property holdings. He is the owner of several restaurants (the “Fat Spencer Burger” chain) in Washington, and owns his own football team (Boston Angels). He even has his own vodka, perfume, and clothing line. Let’s see Spencer’s rise…

2007 – 2017

Spencer originally started off his career as a journalist for The American Conservative magazine, from March to December 2007. He was eventually fired from his job as a result of being “too extreme.” He then served as executive editor of Taki’s Magazine from January 2008 to December 2009.

In 2010, this white nationalist founded AlternativeRight.com, and he credits himself as being the creator of the term “alt-right.” He edited this web site until 2012.

Spencer became viral after being punched by a masked man on the street following the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States. This punch quickly spread throughout the internet, igniting the “punch a Nazi” meme. Spencer supports Trump, and has said “Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory!”

2017 – Present

Spencer led a torch-lit mob to protest the removal of the statue of Robert E. Lee in Charlottesville, Virginia, on May 13, 2017. He led crowds in chants of “You will not replace us” and “Blood and soil.” He was featured prominently on posters for August 2017’s Unite the Right rally, which ended in the death of anti-racist, counter-protester Heather Heyer who was struck by a car mowing through a crowd.

On Thursday, October 19, 2017, Spencer conducted a speech at the University of Florida, which provoked a vocal protest from those in attendance. Prior to his speech, Florida’s Governor Rick Scott declared a “state of emergency”  Alachua County for fears of violent clashes and/or potential loss of life, such as the case of Charlottesville in August.

Spencer is one rich racist who has caused a ton of controversy.

Sixteen students escaped injury after their school bus caught fire and became engulfed in flames. The incident reportedly happened on Thursday at around 3:30 P.M., when the driver of the bus smelled smoke. At that time, officials say that the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS) bus was taking 16 students home from South Mecklenburg High School in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Bus No 364 reportedly burst into flames near the intersection of Eastway Drive and Central Avenue, according to a statement from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools.

According to emergency responders, no one was injured in the fire. However, one person was treated for smoke inhalation at Carolinas Medical Center.

A video shot of the incident shows students escaping while the entire front of the bus is engulfed in flames.

Student Timoni Rushing told WSOC-TV that just before the fire, the bus was making clicking noises and broke down. “And that’s when the front just exploded,” said Rushing.

CMS noted the driver’s quick and immediate response to the fire, saying “While in transit, the driver smelled smoke, immediately stopped the bus, evacuated all students safely and notified emergency services.”

A replacement bus was sent out to pick up the sixteen students who escaped the flaming bus.

“Even if they have to get new buses, that’s something they should be thinking about,” said parent Temoe Cooper in an interview with the WSOC-TV news station.

The bus which caught fire was reportedly last inspected two weeks ago, according to WSOC-TV.

The CMS released a statement, saying that transportation officials with the school system will conduct an investigation. They will also look into and review the inspection and maintenance records of the bus.

Aerial shots of the incident showed the entire front of the bus engulfed and singed with fire.

If you have the resources, there are ways to ensure that you have a good “harvest” this Halloween. In television specials, kids always plan which houses, and even streets, give out the best candy, but why stop there? Certain cities are known for being better places to go trick-or-treating than others. SmartAsset decided to compile a list of the top 10 cities to go trick-or-treating, making use of seven different factors. Not to spoil anything this year, but the Mid-West appeared to be in good standing this year, with Wisconsin as king, having three different cities on the list.

What Determines a Happy Night Out This Year?

• Population Density
• Percent of Residents Under the Age of 15
• Home Values
• Violent Crime Rates
• Property Crime Rates
• Precipitation
• Temperature

Here are the Top 10 Cities to Trick-Or-Treat!

Nampa, Idaho

Reportedly, Nampa one the top ranking of American cities for the third time in a row. Low chances of rain, combined with nearly a third of the population being children, certainly helped the area’s chances this year.

Orem, Utah

Orem’s low violent and property crime rates certainly put the city over the edge this year. Sure, Halloween is the time and place to scare and be scared, but you can seek the forces of the living dead and join their crusade, all the while being safe too.

Kennewick, Washington

Similar to Nampa, Kennewick ranks because of its chances of good weather and its number of children in the area, the main dividing issue is that low family-housing density might mean children and their parents will have to cover a lot of ground.

Aurora, Illinois

Despite being named after the dawn, Aurora’s time to shine this year will be Halloween night. One card in its favor is that it is a relatively housing-dense place to go trick-or-treating.

El Paso, Texas

Let’s not forget all the fun and festivities come at a cost. El Paso, fortunately, is considered the second-most affordable place to go trick-or-treating this year. This being Texas, however, one should consider being careful of the heat.

Dearborn, Michigan

Dropping from a fifth place to sixth this year, Dearborn had a lot of the seven factors in its favors, except that there will be a high chance of rain this year.

Appleton, Wisconsin

Appleton ranked higher this year than last year, back when it did not even make it into the top 10%. It’s nice to know that Appleton is getting their stuff together this year!

Kenosha, Wisconsin

I told you that Wisconsin decided to take over this year! Something tells me that this is not going to be the last time we see a place in American’s Dairyland just yet, either. There’s a “milk chocolate” joke to be made here if I could just figure it out…

Elgin, Illinois

There has been a slight increase in violent crimes in the area, and Elgin fell two spots from last year, but the crisp, weather is expected to make trick-or-treating pleasant this year.

Racine, Wisconsin

I told you that Wisconsin wasn’t done this year! Long live the Badger State! Teach us all thy great wisdom!

Richer-than-god founder of Microsoft Bill Gates has just pledged a $1.7 billion investment for America’s public education system. The announcement came earlier today as Gates delivered the keynote address to the Council of the Great City Schools conference in Cleveland, a gathering of over 1000 school administrators and educators from all over the country.

In his speech, Gates said that every student in America deserves a quality education that will provide them with the tools to succeed in the marketplace. To that end, he said that the role of the philanthropy is “not to be the primary funder, but rather to fund pilots, to fund new ideas – to let people, and it’s always the educators trying new ideas – to let them try them out, and see what really works super well, and get them to scale.”

The Need for Improvement

Part of the push behind this investment into the public school system comes from the distinct disparity of success rates between largely white suburban areas, which he said is like  looking at “two different countries – one where suburban white students perform almost as well as other developed countries, and another where inner-city students and Black and Latino students perform pretty much at the lowest end of all developed countries.”

Because of this disparity, it has become more and more the case that there are more jobs available than people qualified for them, as more and more job paths favor students with a post-secondary degree (specifically, a bachelor’s or above).

With this investment, Gates’ hope is to bolster the success rates of students across the board, though paying specific attention to the issues plaguing largely low-income or minority school districts and classrooms.

Moreover, Gates is interested in how schools can focus on innovations in technology and data to increase performance levels and education for students everywhere, using data systems to track and record the best ways by which to reach the most students.

Where the Money is Going

Gates went on the provide a broad outline for the investment and where specifically the money will be spent to improve public schooling.

He outlined his support for the sometimes-controversial common core standard of curriculums and spoke about how the methods of teaching and teacher-training around these common core standards will be further refined using the existing data and building with data being gathered to better develop the entire common core system.

The most significant portion of the investment, over 60%, is intended to support public schools at large. Gates cited specifically networks of schools that focus on developing new ways of using data to specify which students need special help and “innovative research” for means of providing students with that specialized kind of education.

The goal here is to have these networks propose ideas to the foundation rather than be directed by the foundation. As Gates put it, “We will let people come to us with the set of approaches they think will work for them in their local context.”

25% is directed at funding “big bets – innovations with the potential to change the trajectory of public education over the next 10 to 15 years.” Along similar lines as developing and utilizing data systems to monitor the success of schools, this money is looking to fund innovative strides taken for “promising developments in neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and behavioral economics.”

The remaining 15% will be directed to charter schools. Charter schools have been a somewhat polarizing concept in education for some time, given that they are privately-run schools working from public funds. Historically, charter schools have generally not outperformed regular public schools, though select few have been very successful in the implementation of their systems.

What This Means for Public Schools

This investment is a welcome one for many beleaguered educators and administrators all over the country, though it is still a start. There are hundreds of thousands of schools across America and tens of millions of students. Hopefully, the goals set by this investment will encourage new systems of learning and tracking performances.

A welcome part of Gates’ speech was that the methods by which teachers have been evaluated in the past, programs of his design, will be mostly set aside for now. When these systems of teacher evaluations started, we saw a massive pushback from teachers everywhere who cited that it seemed more like a way of scrutinizing and blaming teachers rather than a metric for helping students receive better educations.

Ideally, the focus on helping low-income and largely minority attended public schools will see an increase in the graduation levels nationally, which have been mostly static the past few years. With more students pursuing and achieving post-secondary degrees, they will have better access to economically stable and personally fulfilling careers.

“Our role is to serve as a catalyst of good ideas, driven by the same guiding principle we started with: all students – but especially low-income students and students of color – must have equal access to a great public education that prepares them for adulthood,” Gates said.

“We will not stop until this has been achieved.”

Savannah McNealy was a 22-year-old senior from Colorado State University, who was killed early Thursday morning in a shooting near campus, which has left three people dead and one wounded. The shooting suspect is included among the dead. According to police, the incident happened outside an apartment complex about a mile west of the campus. The name of the suspected shooter has not yet been released to the public.

The shooting reportedly occurred on Thursday at around 2 A.M. As of this writing, the motive for the double homicide is unknown.

The Larimer County coroner’s office confirmed Fort Collins resident Savannah McNealy as one of three dead during Thursday’s shooting. McNealy had been shot multiple times. The office ruled her death as a homicide.

The name’s of the other three involved have not yet been released to the public. City police Sgt. Dean Cunningham said that it looks as if at least one of the victims knew the shooter.

The scene of the crime was cordoned off by yellow police tape. This tape blocked off access to a parking area for an apartment building that houses many student and faculty members from CSU.

A former CSU student by the name of Darren Rutz lives near the area and reported waking up by the sound of gunfire followed by a woman screaming, according to his interview with CBS Denver station KCNC-TV. Rutz said, “There was a lot of gunshots actually, so, I don’t know, they sounded like they were all coming from the same place.”

Austin Pickett lives in the complex where the shooting took place. “We just kept hearing these manic screams, at which point we decided to call 911,” said Pickett in an interview with the news station.

Grief counselors at Colorado State University reportedly tended to students and others at an on-campus student center. The university sent out an e-mail to students and staff regarding the shooting in Fort Collins, stating that, “We are deeply saddened by this terrible loss to our campus community and will share more information as we have it.”

Who Was Savannah McNealy?

Savannah McNealy/Facebook

Savannah McNealy was a student enrolled at Colorado State University, who was in her senior year at the time of the shooting. During her time at CSU, she studied liberal arts, art, and art history, according to Fort Collins Coloradoan. McNealy also contributed to CSU Life, a monthly campus publication, where she worked as a designer. She was set to graduate from Colorado State University in December.

McNealy lived in Fort Collins, Colorado. But her Facebook page suggests that she’s originally from Denver.

CSU President Dr. Tony Frank confirmed McNealy’s death in a statement.

Frank wrote, “Savannah majored in Art and would have graduated this December. A member of the student media staff and an intern on CSU’s Creative Services Team, she was well-loved and respected by those who knew her.”

Info about Colorado State University

Colorado State University is a public university with more than 33,000 students. The school is roughly 65 miles from Denver. Thursday’s shooting occurred outside an apartment complex about a mile west of CSU.

The university was founded in 1870.

Dan Stoddard is a 38-year-old bus driver turned college basketball player. Six months ago, he was approached about trying out for the Algonquin College men’s basketball team in Ottawa, Ontario. Now, he’s 50 pounds lighter and playing college basketball.

He plays ball for the Algonquin Thunder.

Stoddard is the father of two teenage sons. He stands 6-foot-8 and is affectionately known as “Old Man Dan” by his teammates on the Algonquin men’s team. He first caught the attention of Algonquin Thunder head coach Trevor Costello during an alumni tournament game, which Costello was referring, according to Kelly Egan of the Ottawa Citizen.

The 38-year-old OC Transpo bus driver maintained a full-time job and online course load, all the while getting himself into enough shape to drop 50 pounds. He has quickly become a fan favorite as part of the Algonquin College men’s basketball.

“We played an exhibition game against last year’s national champs,” Stoddard told Egan on Wednesday. “I scored a basket, they called out my name (on a loud speaker) and I could have cried on the floor.”

Who is Dan Stoddard?

Stoddard is both a bus driver and a college basketball player. He’s 38 years of age and stands tall at 6-foot-8. He has two teenage sons, and currently plays for Algonquin College men’s basketball team in Ottawa, Ontario.

He trained for six months to lose 50 pounds and get into the right shape to play college basketball.

In April 2016, Stoddard made the news when he pulled his bus over to pick up a woman fleeing from assault. He was highly praised for how he handled the situation. He convinced the abused, half-naked woman in distress to come aboard the bus. “She said that she had been assaulted physically and verbally”, Stoddard said, “Beyond that it was just a matter of listening to her story, reassuring her and telling her it wasn’t her fault.”

What Happened?

Dan Stoddard stands out among his teammates, who are all college-aged players. He’s a 38-year old bus driver/college basketball player. He fulfilled his “hoop dreams.”

“I hear the laughter,” he said, referring to an exhibition game against an opposing team. “I walk down the hallway and they’re laughing, going, ‘Look at the old guy, look at the old guy,’ ”  adding, however, “It’s not quite as funny when we beat them.”

Point guard Ernest Tolete, 23, said that he originally thought Stoddard was a coach of the friend because of his age, but he eventually came to accept him as a teammate. Tolete added, “You can still love something, regardless of how old you are.”

A man, known simply to the public as “Zach,” is said to be a diehard fan of Penn State’s Nittany Lions. He never would have probably guessed that he would one day become a viral sensation with the team, but the strangest things are happening every day. After practice on Thursday, Zach found himself as half of a dance battle between him and defensive back, Marcus Allen, as caught on video. Watch for yourself to see who wins!

Watch for Yourself! Who do you think deserves to win?

Obviously, the team unanimously declares their buddy, Zach, the winner. While it goes without saying that he should have won, “booing” Allen was a little too on the nose about it!

According to SB Nation, the team is heading for a game this Saturday, so Thursday’s practice should have been something far more serious, so it’s nice to see the team blow off some steam for their pal, Zach. Hopefully, the others had their turn off-camera. What? They’re in training and dancing is a good way to exercise!

The concerned mother wanted to warn her daughter about the change of weather and the slippery frost on the deck. But of course, that’s not how it sounds at all…

Grace’s mother texted her daughter, “Be careful when you leave in the morning, it’s ass eating season!!”

She responded by asking her mom, “Mom what do you think ‘ass eating season’ means?”

Of course Grace’s mom responds in the most hilarious way possible. “There’s frost on the deck! Slippery!!! You’ll fall and eat ass”. And we can only imagine what the frost on the deck can be a reference to.

Grace reportedly told BuzzFeed News that she instantly knew that her mom didn’t know what “ass eating,” and that she might have thought the phrase was synonymous for “eating shit.”

The daughter said, “I think this is something she might have overheard or seen in a meme and confused it for ‘eating shit,’ and then was trying to be funny when she texted me.”

Grace later informed her mother that “ass eating” was a sexual act and told her NOT to look it up under any circumstances.

“She was a little embarrassed but thought it was funny,” she said.  “I don’t know if she looked it up, I really hope not.”

How “Ass Eating Season” Went Viral

Grace posted a screenshot of the text messages with her mom on Twitter. Since she posted the hilarious exchange to her account, she’s received almost 400k hearts and over 100k shares, along with 840 comments.

People quickly fell in love with the comedy magic of mother and daughter.

Some didn’t agree with the narrative that the text was accidentally sexual…

I’m sure there’s better ways to relate to your daughter…

One person on Twitter wrote, “This reminds me of the time my mom asked me what rim jobs and behymens are.”

Did Grace really intend to text her daughter about anilingus? Was “ass eating season” an unintentional goof? Either way, let’s pretend that our moms are clueless about freaky sex, so no one gets freaked out, k?

Let’s keep it clueless, people!

After losing the first two games of the series, the Yankees won all three of their home games against the Astros and are now one win away from reaching the World Series for the first time since 2009. The Yankees have been a comeback team so far this playoffs as they have overcome two game deficits in both the ALDS as well as the ALCS. The key to the three game win streak has been the pitching for the Yankees. In three games at Yankee Stadium, the Astros scored a combined five runs. To make matters worse, four of those runs can in game four which means that the team has scored one run or fewer in games three and five. If Houston plans on forcing a game seven, its offense needs to awake from its current slumber.

On the hill for the Yankees is Luis Severino. Severino has had an eventful 2017 MLB playoffs with extremely inconsistent performances. Severino pitched in the AL Wild Card game against the Twins and only lasted a third of an inning while giving up four runs. Severino then had to pitch in game four against the Indians and went seven innings while only allowed three runs. However, in his last start, Severino left the game early after getting hit by a batted ball despite only allowing one run in four innings. Severino’s postseason performances have been hit or miss thus far, but he has the stuff to shut down this struggling Astros’ offense.

In their first elimination game of the postseason, the Astros will send out ace Justin Verlander. In the second game of the series, Verlander pitched a complete game in which he only allowed one run and had 13 strikeouts. So far this postseason, Verlander has been practically untouchable. In over 17 innings of work, Verlander has an earned run average of 2.04 and is 3-0. Verlander already shut down the Yankees once this series. I would not be surprised if it happened again.

As for my prediction, I will take the Yankees reaching the World Series in a very low scoring contest. The Astros simply cannot make contact with the baseball and I have no faith in backing this team at this moment in time. Even if Verlander pitches as well as he has this postseason, the lack of run support will come back to bite him.

As for score, I will take the Yankees in a score of 3-1.

Here’s a look at a screenshot of Kappell’s post, provided by The College Fix:

“Amy Kapell and I were both in a ‘Grrr, we should just go find someone to beat the shit out of’ mood,” the post, attributed to San Jose State University lecturer Matthew Kapell, reads. “Then we found planned parenthood [sic] protesters. Who’s gonna bail us out?”

The professor’s Facebook page is protected. However, a screenshot of the post was uploaded to Facebook by an account named “Pro-Life Libertarians.”

San Jose University was contacted by The College Fix web site regarding Professor Kapell’s threatening Facebook comment. University spokeswoman Patricia Harris told The Fix: “I am looking into this.”

According to Matthew Kapell’s personal web site, he’s taught an array of subjects, including American History & Studies, Film, Television, Digital Media, Anthropology, and Cultural Studies. He’s previously taught at the University of Michigan, Swansea University, University of Michigan-Dearborn, Wayne State University and several other institutions.

Spokeswoman Patricia Harris thanked The College Fix for bringing the teacher’s comments to the university’s attention. She supplied a statement from the university, which read, “Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have confirmed that Matthew Kapell is a part-time temporary faculty member who teaches two courses at SJSU. SJSU will respond appropriately.”

Small bits broken off from Halley’s Comet, dubbed theOrionid meteor shower, can be seen across the sky this weekend. If you have the proper equipment, you can watch the event as it happens outside, but there is a way you can also watch it from the safety of your own home, doing what you are doing right now!

The event should have reached its peak tonight on Friday, October 20, but will last until Sunday morning. On both Friday and Saturday, the event should be visible during the late evening. From a dark place, an expected 10 to 15 meteors per hour can be seen, according to EarthSky. Since it is only one day after the new moon, no moonlight is expected to effect visibility during the shower this weekend.

And before anyone asks, meteor showers like this are what people think are shooting stars!

Who is Taiwan Jones? He may or may not be a real person who attends Howard University and just flunked a midterm.  Mr. Jones became a viral hit late Thursday night hours after Twitter user and Atlanta resident Roy Handy tweeted about sitting next to a professor and peeping over at test scores of the now-infamous Taiwan Jones.

Roy said that he felt bad for Jones. “I just feel bad,” tweeted Jones. “cuz lil buddy finna enjoy his weekend just come back to class, life in shambles.”

Tragic…

Soon, more and more peeps were stuck on that Taiwan Jones tip…

No sh*t he forgot to study…

Where’s Taiwan Jones?

Many people got very curious about Taiwan Jones over on Twitter. They liked the story, loved the name, and were motivated to go out look for him.

#FindTaiwan

Taiwan Jones almost sent Twitter over the edge…

#Sh*t just got serious, boys…

What happens when one Taiwan Jones runs into another Taiwan Jones? #DoppelgangerJones

Of course, you’re always going to have your Taiwan Jones deniers…

Here’s another…

We found Osama. We can find Taiwan Jones too…

And then real Taiwan Jones started showing up on Twitter…

Ya boy just got famous…

After the fame and attention got in the heads of the two Taiwan Jones, they decided to change their usernames.

@TaiwanJones_ reportedly changed his name a second time to @TaiwanJoness, and changed his avatar on multiple occasions following #TaiwanJonesGate

Is Taiwan Jones a real person?

Buzzfeed reached out to the twitter user behind the Taiwan Jones joke. His name is Roy Handy, the guy who pulled a viral Twitter hint out of his ear (I can’t say “ass”).

Handy wrote in an e-mail to Buzzfeed, saying, “I can not verify what school the student attends, which is why I said ‘if’ in context of the tweet. I wasn’t aware of how much power this relatable topic could have across the HBCU community as a whole.”

When asked about to give a quick answer on what he really witnessed on that plane, Handy suggested that his Tweet should be taken, “as a fun, relatable tweet that people enjoyed to take part in, and keep the confidentiality of the story being fact or fiction to myself. I’m not really in the position to take phone calls, and I can’t really give an account to anything that was tweeted under the terms that I’d rather leave the tweet in.”

After searching the Howard University directory, it is revealed that there is no Taiwan Jones attending the university.

Howard University

According to a source from Complex, there are no current student enrolled under the name “Taiwan Jones.”

Is #TaiwanJonesGate Over?

Of course not. Taiwan Jones lives inside each and every one of us. #WeAreTaiwanJones

Doctors don’t determine whether or not you’re a Taiwan Jones…

Alright, let’s get the facts straight here…

After seven weeks of college football, there is a contest between two Big 12 powerhouses. These teams are the Texas Longhorns and the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Both teams started the season with different goals and hopes and that has remained true as the season has progressed. Oklahoma State was ranked in the AP preseason top ten rankings and was expected to compete for a college football playoff spot under coach Mike Gundy. Oklahoma State is currently the 10th ranked team in the college football rankings and will look to remain in playoff contention. Texas, on the other hand, started the season in the preseason top 25 but have already lost three of their first six games which means that their slim playoff hopes have already been reduced to zero. However, an upset win for Texas could definitely lead to a long winning streak during the rest of the season.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys started off their season extremely well and won their first three games by over 30 points each. The Cowboys looked like a potential candidate to win the NCAA championship. However, the Cowboys got upset by conference rival TCU at home and fell in the rankings as a result. Since that upset loss, the Cowboys have won consecutive games including a hard fought victory at Texas Tech.

Oklahoma State’s success is due to star quarterback Mason Rudolph. So far this season, Rudolph has thrown for 19 touchdowns and only four interceptions along with over 2,300 yards passing in just six games. Rudolph has also rushed for six touchdowns this season and will look to stay in the Heisman race against Texas on Saturday. Rudolph entered the season with the hopes of receiving a first round projection in the upcoming NFL Draft. If Rudolph continues to play like he has in the first six weeks, he will be a lock to be selected in the first round.

Texas’ season has been quite unpredictable to say the least. The Longhorns started the season in the top 25 but were upset by Maryland in the first game of the season. Many experts Texas’ season was over but Texas has remained extremely competitive in the following weeks. The main reason for this team’s competitiveness is due to starting quarterback Sam Ehlinger. So far this season, Ehlinger has thrown for six touchdowns and three interceptions. In addition to his success through the air, Ehlinger has 275 rushing yards this season and is averaging 4.0 yards per carry. If Ehlinger can make plays with his legs, expect Oklahoma State’s defense to struggle.

As for my prediction, I have to side with Oklahoma State. I think that Rudolph and that elite receiving core will be too much to handle for the Longhorns. I do expect Ehlinger to create several big plays but I think Oklahoma State wins this contest in a shootout.

After seven weeks of college football, there is a contest between two Big Ten teams. These teams are the Penn State Nittany Lions and the Michigan Wolverines. Both teams started the season with championship aspirations but only Penn State is still undefeated. Penn State was ranked in the AP preseason top ten rankings and was expected to compete for a college football playoff spot under coach James Franklin. Penn State is currently the second ranked team in the college football rankings and will look to remain in playoff contention. Michigan, on the other hand, is currently ranked the 19th best team in college football due to an early loss to Michigan State. Both teams could use this signature win to improve their chances of reaching the playoffs this season.

The Penn State Nittany Lions are currently 6-0 and are looking to prove that they are indeed a top two team in all of college football. In five of their six games, Penn State has won by at least 19 points and have looked like an elite team in college football. However, in their fourth game of the season, Penn State was almost upset by conference rival Iowa and needed to game-winning touchdown pass with no time left in order to remain undefeated. Last year, Penn State got embarrassed by Michigan and lost by 39 points. This year, the Nittany Lions are seeking revenge in front of their home crowd. A combination that could be lethal against the Wolverines.

Penn State’s success is due to star running back Saquon Barkley. This season, Barkley already has over 600 yards rushing along with six rushing touchdowns. Barkley has also contributed heavily in the receiving game and has 29 catches for 395 yards along with two receiving touchdowns. Barkley is currently the frontrunner to win the Heisman trophy and it seems likely that Penn State will look for Barkley to carry them to a tough victory against Michigan.

Michigan’s season started with a ton of uncertainties. Michigan lacked experience in the majority of its defense and experts were concerned about how quickly these players would adapt to college level competition. Michigan’s defense responded and is currently ninth in all of college football in points allowed per game. At the moment, the biggest concern for the Wolverines is starting quarterback John O’Korn. Since becoming the starter, O’Korn has looked awful and has thrown one touchdown along with four interceptions. The only change Michigan has of completing the upset is if O’Korn can limit the turnovers.

As for my prediction, I have to side with Penn State. I think that Barkley will have a big second half and carry this team to a huge revenge win. Penn State is motivated for this contest and I expect them to limit Michigan’s ground attack and force O’Korn to beat them with his arm. I think Penn State wins by a touchdown.

Where do we start about millennials? At the very least, they appear to understand the importance of three little words: location, location, location. At least, this is true according to Time, who crafted a list of the top 25 cities that millennials are moving to, looking at “millennial migration” from 2010 to 2015. Despite the name of the number, there are technically more than 25 cities that ended up on the list, as tri-state and metropolitan areas were grouped together. That said, look at the top 10 to see the most popular cities and places in case you want to go where the millennials are (or alternatively, learn what places to avoid…not everyone’s too keen on millennials).

Relationships are hard, and so it is important to realize when things have reached their breaking point, especially, if possible, before things can get too serious. While the end of a relationship is nothing to necessarily be happy about, it is nice to see people have some good humor about it, and people can, if the trending #MyRelationshipWasOverWhen hashtag is anything to go by.

Using this hashtag, people have been seriously offering their life story, but also making jokes. In the end, you could only guess which is which! Take a look for yourself, and you might be able to find a few nuggets of wisdom, or at least a few jokes! Some are arguably both!

It’s kind of surprising how much of these have to do with Twitter!
